Detailed Description

The module implements a runtime link editor with the standard dlopen, and dlclose family of functions.

The runtime link editor is different to that found on Unix type systems. The object modules are compiled for PIC or position independent code and therefore require relocating when loaded.

The object file format is currently ELF and object files can be separate files or in an archive. Object files in an archive are referenced by specifying 'archive:object' format. For example 'libfoo.a:bar.o'.
